2-Hour Delay for May 1, 2025
We are monitoring the power outages closely in our community and we still do not have power fully restored to all district buildings. At this time, Peters Township School District will operate on a 2-hour delay for Thursday, May 1 with a modified kindergarten schedule. We will continue to assess the safe access to our buildings and if a closure is necessary, families will be notified early Thursday morning.

Welcome to PTHS Counseling!

Our Mission

The mission of the Peters Township High School Counseling Program is to provide a comprehensive, developmental counseling program addressing the personal/social, academic and career development of all students. School counselors are professional student advocates who provide support to maximize student potential and academic achievement. In partnership with other educators, parents or guardians and the community, school counselors assist all students in realizing their abilities, interests, and goals as they transition through the educational process to become successful members of society and life-long learners.
